ÁùºÏ±¦µä

A second series of ÁùºÏ±¦µä ISD's Budget Community Conversations begins this week and people will get a look into ÁùºÏ±¦µä ISD's preliminary 2018-19 budget proposal.

 

Attendees will hear what priorities were developed during the first round of community meetings, as well as how participant feedback has shaped the proposed budget. The conversation will also include an update on efforts to keep district spending aligned with anticipated revenues.

 

Presenters will share next steps in the district's multiyear budget stabilization planning, which include the formation of a budget stabilization task force that will meet over the summer. The task force will evaluate actions the district could take to balance the budget over the next two to three years.
